Violence by a Female Confidant in Turkiye in the Covid-19 Pandemic:The Gender Shadow Pandemic

Öz:
This research aims to determine the impact of "stay-at-home" practices on violence against women during the Covid-19 epidemic process, contribute scientifically to the regulation of practices based on existing policies, and develop recommendations for remedial and preventative policies. In the research designed as a scanning model, violence against women news was searched for retrospectively in all national and local newspapers and news sites published online before the pandemic (12.03.2019-12.03.2020) and during the pandemic (13.03.2020-13.03.2021) using keywords. In the study, the data were compiled from a total of 545 news articles, 247 of which were from before the pandemic and 298 during the pandemic period. The SPSS 25 statistical analysis program was used in the analysis of the data. In summary, it was determined that the number of cases during the epidemic was significantly higher than the number of cases before the pandemic (p <0.05), and the number of cases of violence (83.4%) before the pandemic decreased (65.1%) during the pandemic period. It was determined that violence, which is a crime of intentional injury, increased by 34.9% during the pandemic period compared to the pre-epidemic (16.6%) (p <0.05). It is thought that the research will shed light on the development of policies to prevent violence against women, early intervention, and recovery.
